  HAVANA -- Cuban President Fidel Castro accused President Bush on Friday of plotting with Miami exiles to kill him.
  

  "We know that Mr. Bush has committed himself to the mafia ... to assassinate me," the Cuban president said.

  
  

  "I can die a natural death or I can die a planned death," Castro said. "It really doesn't matter to me how I die, but I will surely die fighting."
